How about something like: i= 0; Do[ i= i+1; Print["something 1 = ", i]; If[i <=3, Continue[] ]; i= i+10; Print["something 2 = ", i]; If[i < 30, Continue[] ], {7} ] Print["something else"]; something 1 = 1 something 1 = 2 something 1 = 3 something 1 = 4 something 2 = 14 something 1 = 15 something 2 = 25 something 1 = 26 something 2 = 36 something 1 = 37 something 2 = 47 something else Stefan Linnik ~~~~~~~~ "Guy Israeli" <guyi1 at netvision.net.il> wrote in message news:d868ce$bu0$1 at smc.vnet.net... > Hi again, > > since everyone tells me not to use goto and label (although for the use > i'll > describe below it is very comfterable and the simplest way to do it.
